20 Cars with Wacky Wheel Configurations

16. Velorex

They built the Velorex Oskar in Czechoslovakia, in the 50s. And it was one of the strangest cars they ever produced behind the Iron Curtain. And since a motorcycle company built it, it looked more like a three-wheeled bike than a proper car.

It was powered by a 300 cc motorcycle engine with six HP. However, since the car was extremely light, this tiny motor produced a serious performance, as well. Interestingly, the Velorex didn’t have body panels, but had canvas that stretched over the frame rails.
